The config file is really just perl code and since perl hasn't
changed and the code is just eval'd it probably won't make any
difference.

I'm no debian expert and on my debian machine I actually compiled it
from scratch since I didn't like the dependence on apache (I am
running it on an arm-based  plugcomputer with just 512MB for root and
not much processing power)

But it seems like potentially the install was only partial.
I would use 'dpkg -r' to remove what is there now and then reinstall.
Maybe even do a purge if you are careful to copy over your old config files.
